Which I think, under further guidance of the Design team, we could turn into
a mode whereby results are only retrieved if the user unfolds the section
containing suggestions.
At the moment, search queries are passed to all scopes in advance, to let
them retrieve results as fast as possible and provide feedback for the user
as he keeps typing. That is the case for both scopes working on local
content, as well as online ones.
We can look into differentiating them for O+1 (now Precise). However I'm
afraid that the only way to solve that particular privacy concern is to
remove the scope altogether for now:
apt-get remove --purge unity-scope-musicstores
as also mentioned by Jason in this thread.
Note however (and I think Mikkel mentioned it as well) that no queries are
made if you search from the Home dash lens. If you hit<SUPER> and type your
query, it won't go hit the Ubuntu One servers. Unity only makes queries to
the Music store if you explicitly search into the Music lens itself.
Alternatively, could the entire online store "library" be cached to
user's computers? This should speed up search and there shouldn't be a
privacy concern. It could be similar to what app-install-data does.
But how much space would this data take?
I don't know either. But I suspect that would take some previous space
on the CD and then local install. Not to mention the need for very
frequent updates. And an out-of-date database would be even worse, ie
not returning any of the new music hits.
I feel the online mode is the only one really making sense.
